Regarding the archive system, the long-defunct ScL also had that feature, but I suppose there is little interest on such a thing nowadays as regular packs and freeleech are seen as good enough.
TorrentLeech is perhaps the closest thing we still have to the dedicated scene trackers of the past.
Thanks for sharing the nfo. Was scenenotice.org move somewhere else? I just remembered about it but it seems to be gone.
Oh yes, a.k.a. The clover, another good website ScL. Yeah you're right, times have changed.
TL is a good source nowadays, I do not know if it is just me but the scene seems to be disappearing every time, even more with what happened with SPARKS, it's a shame. Maybe we are all getting old and there's no legacy.
I had no idea they're down, let alone what happened to them. Back in the day I used to visit sometimes for entertainment purposes, and firmly remember you had to zoom text to at least 300% to make it readable :weirdo:
Competition from P2P groups is now fierce across all categories, the legal atmosphere gets tougher with time, and the SPARKS bust was a reminder of something every scener knows from day one: your little hobby could land you in prison... is it worth it? I can't fault anyone who answers no.Quote:

Probably was take down along with what happened with Sparks. I was not able to find any other source

Agree. Having releases early made them commit mistakes.

Are Bibliotik recruitments closed? Any way to join them nowadays?
They have an official recruitment thread on BaconBits. Some requirement:
- Be an elite
- Have access to Library Overdrive
I'm an elite but sadly I don't have Overdrive
Reportedly it's possible to obtain access with a good proxy list and some tricks up your sleeve. However, I don't have any feedback on this method (positive or negative).
